connect network ready printer to wireless g network

by scott . Updated 16 years, 11 months ago

Greetings,

I have a HP 6940 Deskjet printer which is network ready and I have used it connected to my router with ethernet until last week and it worked very well.

I moved last week and now the printer and the router are separated by a floor in the house with no cable anywhere. I know the simple answer would be to move the router or the printer, but of course I cannot do either.

What device do I need to get the ethernet cable of the printer connected to that will talk to the wireless router?

I am using a Motorola cable modem with a Linksys wrt54gs version 2 router. 1 linksys wre54g version 2 range expander. 2 Toshiba laptops (win xp sp3) using Atheros wireless g cards. One HP 6940 network ready ethernet printer (great printer). It is not wireless (Ugh, don’t ask).

If you need more info, please let me know. Also, since I am asking is there any way to network a scanner?

Thanks for the help.

Best,
Scott
